Liam Gallagher says Johnny Depp is perfect for Beatles film
Liam Gallagher has said that he wants to cast Johnny Depp in his forthcoming Beatles movie.
The ex-Oasis and current-Beady Eye frontman's company In 1 Productions is making a film based on Richard DiLello's 1973 Beatles' history The Longest Cocktail Party.
He wants Johnny Depp to take the part of the band's publicist Derek Taylor.
Contact Music reveals that he told Q magazine, "I want Johnny Depp to play Derek Taylor. It's got Johnny Depp written all over it, man."
The notoriously hyperactive singer is crowing about the film before it has even been cast.
He said, "The film script is done. It's gonna blow people's minds, man. I'm just waiting to find out when we choose the actors.
It's been said that DiLello's book was already virtually a script, and he wrote the script for Sean Penn's 1983 film Bad Boys and 1998 film Colors.

That would be really amazing.
I always wanted Depp to appear in an Oasis video or something, you know, take advantage of their friendship to help promote the band.

Johnny's great. Doubt it would happen though.
At least I don't think so. Was Liam really good friends with him as well? I've seen a few pictures of him put and about or on holidays with Noel. Don't remember seeing any of Liam and Johnny.
I remember Noel was asked in an interview in the late 90's, something about a desert island type question. Maybe who he'd like to be stuck on the island with and I know he said Johnny...and maybe Weller was the other.
Noel says they don't hang out now that Johnny has more or less settled down in France with his family.

It's weird nobody's ever in itw if the movie is still on, where is it atand so on' they said the M Winterbottom would direct it and then nothing at all. I hope they haven't abandon it but it's weird nobody's ever asking him about it.

I wonder what the deal is with this film project. Liam announced it at Canne in spring of 2010. It is now 2013 with very little progress to speak of. No finished script! The only think I know is these facts:
1. Beady Eye will do an instrumental soundtrack 2. Liam wants Johnny Depp to play Derek Taylor 3. Liam wants Aaron Johnson-Taylor to play John Lennon

Liam talked about it in the last BBC itw, he said someting like "it's like the title, it's the longuest cocktail party film tried to be made ever", he also said that they'r gonna do the soundtrack and that he doesn't want beatles music because it' s not a movie about the beatles.

Liam should play John Lennon himself. He's got the glasses.

Liam should play John Lennon himself. He's got the glasses. I don't want Liam to appear in this movie at all. Make as a quick cameo playing an extra. No big roles please.

I really don't think Liam has any aspiration as an actor, he couldn't get rid of his accent even if he wanted to.
